    The only other Kmart that I’ve known that has had that look to it (the long store then the triangle entrance with the green roof, that was different from Super K) was the Clifton Park, NY Big K that closed in 2014, a store that my family shopped at a lot... most my school stuff and clothes came from that store- so it’s really cool to see that there was another store with similar architecture... but this one in the video is laid out differently than the Clifton Park one.
    Great video as always

      @jackson5116 6 лет назад +6

      shhh, you're revealing that jerkoff's plan. He's going to tank Kmart/Sears to get their property and assets (he has first rights to bid on their land and IP), in order to get richer than he already is! This guy is going to kill Kmart/Sears just to give himself another big fat payday...

    You know I am 51 I remember back in the 80's and 90's there where kmarts everywhere as well as sooper kmart's.
    Before sooper Kmart came the reg Kmarts had delis, and cafe's you could sit down and eat at, and at the restaurant you would get a waitress. Wow have times have changed.

  • @alexgaddis23
    @alexgaddis23 6 лет назад +1

    All kmarts in my area Have closed. I heard there was 9 or 10 of them at one point and have all closed over time with one I think closed in 1995! Everthing in this kmart seems to be going quickly. Of course this place hasn't been updated in 20 years. Great video wallie keep it up!!!!!

    It was really sad when Kmart closed down in Mississauga Ontario Canada my memories as a kid in the 1980s to mid 1990s shopping with my mom seeing the blue light in the store distance and wondering what was on sale and remembering getting cotton candy from the machine.

    Thank you so very much for documenting this Kmart!!!! We lost our Kmart back in January. I really hope another store or business occupies the old building. It is sad seeing it sit there empty.
    I am so happy you got the blue light too!!!!
    Thanks again so very much!!!! Take care and stay awesome!!!! 👍😬

    Awesome you got a friend for your Blue Light at home. Very classy of the liquidator and the store manager to let you have it. Great video and sad to see another great KMart stipped down and fading away.
    I also yelled "Hell Yah!!!!"(and woke my Cats up) When you asked if we're hate Eddie Dumpard the king of ruining great retail and lives.
    Thanks for the little fun touches you put in the video. As I'm sad for the Kmart closing you little bits cheer me up.
    Is that ballcap connected with any sports team? I would think Well Lit is what happens after you have six, eight, ten beers and other alcohol. Also WHY do they have 49ners gear in a Pennsylvania KMart? Does the team need $$$ bad? I would even accept Browns gear in that store.
    Stay awesome as you are and shine those blue lights bright!

    • @WallieB26
      @WallieB26  6 лет назад +4

      Catman Mark Blanchard The Super Lit hat is something I think is just generic to Kmart. I've never seen it before. And as for the San Fran gear, when Kmart and Sears stores close, they send unsold merch to other stores. And given I've been to a good amount of closing Sears and Kmarts around here, I'm thinking I have this exact same merch in other videos from other stores. Also... yeah.... San Fran is hurting that bad. Lol

    I think that's the case with every Kmart's garden center. You'd be lucky to find a garden center with a few pallets of plants, the entire thing is basically just storage.

    Drop ceilings and tile floors- THAT'S why Kmart developed a reputation for being a fantastic retailer. Too bad they didn't continue putting money into their stores, a fresh coat of paint, and most of what made Kmart special could start coming back...

    @albertricks4976 6 лет назад +1

    I kinda miss the old, smaller Kmarts. They were kind of the glue that held small, somewhat struggling communities together. Well, sort of. Then there were the 7-11s run by Arab & Asian immigrants desiring to become entrepreneurs. Get a piece of the 'American Dream'. Wonderful. I liked buying audio cassette tapes there. CDs were a little too pricey for me as a youth. Sometimes a cool shirt in beautiful two-tone colors with a nice seasonal feel.

    I agree with that one with you. As of the other day my last local Kmart is no more either, the name you had just said about the current chairman running the combined company has gone beyond wreckage. I think this is the last year what remaining physical Sears/Kmart stores left will remain.

    You didn't film to the right of the front entrance, would have been interesting. Was there anything that looked like the store was bigger at one point? I wonder if that big diamond-shaped entrance was an attempt to possibly expand it into a Super Kmart Center, or if it was.

    When you are an old man and your grandchildren ask what is that blue light, you can show them videos of a time when people went to actual stores with visible merchandise and service clerks. They will hardly believe you because buying then will be speaking to an Alexa or equivalent or watching screens. There are no "stores".

      It wasn't a deal with CVS as not all parts of the country have CVS. Kmart probably made a deal with either the closest pharmacy or the biggest "chain" in town (in my area everything was switched to Walgreens).
